In light of the mass anti-austerity protests in Kenya and Argentina in 2024, Rea Maci offers a historical analysis of the neo-colonial relationship between the International Monetary Fund (IMF) and these two countries. She exposes the cycle of debt, austerity, poverty, and governmental negligence imposed by this institution of Western imperialism on nations in the Global South. Maci decries IMF policies as a form of unforgiving structural violence inflicted on the most vulnerable populations. She calls for renewed global solidarity to dismantle the institutions that perpetuate colonial power structures and economic dependency.
